My friend Rick has been in the hospital for quite a few days and I only found out recently when I just hsppened to go to FB.

See how quickly you can be out of the loop.

[George]

Back from LACC, food, and Hamilton - more in the notes, which will be going up late, of course.

I can't wait to read about it.

I know.  I get messages if I'm tagged or it's a post that I've liked, but otherwise, I don't know what's going on. 

[George]

Some (many??) times, it's a good thing.

[TCB]

Fortunately, I haven't missed the memorial service.

And speaking of Stephen King, after I left my parents' house, I stopped off at the Best Buy close to their house and bought the King of Horror Collection Blu-ray 4pk.  Out of the four movies, I've only seen "The Shining" and "It" (the original version...but I barely remember this).

That's good.

What are the other two movies?

Speaking of Mr. King...

T.O.D.

Favorite book and movie....THE STAND

"Salem's Lot" and "Cat's Eye."

[George]

I don't own any of the movies.  Now, I have them on Blu-ray. 

[George]

Hopefully, they actually look good on Blu-ray.

[TCB]

Is that the original SALEM'S LOT, or the remake?

[George]

Is that the original SALEM'S LOT, or the remake.

The 1979 original.

[TCB]

Actually, I have never seen either one, but I understand the original is better.

[TCB]

I don't know anything about CAT'S EYE.

[TCB]

I liked the book, THE SHINING, but I disliked the movie.

[George]

I don't know anything about CAT'S EYE.

It's an anthology of three stories.  Here's a synopsis from IMDb:

Three horror-thriller tales revolve around a mysterious stray cat which is attempting to find a little girl in trouble. In "Quitters, Inc.": the cat is picked up by a shady New York "doctor" who uses experimental techniques to get people to quit smoking. His latest client is a man named Morrison, who learns he'll suffer some terrible consequences if he tries to cheat. In "The Ledge": the cat is picked up by Cressner, a shady Atlantic City millionaire who forces tennis pro Norris (his wife's lover), to walk a narrow ledge around his high-rise penthouse apartment. In "The General": the cat arrives in Wilmington, North Carolina, where it is found by Amanda, the young girl it has been sent to protect. What she needs protection from is a tiny, evil troll who lives behind the skirting board in her bedroom.

I liked the book, THE SHINING, but I disliked the movie.

I only saw the movie for the first time two years ago.

Gratuitous Post # 170!

...for absolutely no reason, at all.

Keep going and we might hit page seven.

I don't think I want to see the new version of IT.

[George]

I don't think I want to see the new version of IT.

I'd like to.  On Rotten Tomatoes, it has an 85%/86% rating.

[George]
